Not necessarily. Your tax credits may change drastically if you give up work, although you would get full housing and council tax benefit. Additionally, a jobseeker is just that - a jobseeker. You have to be actively available and looking for work - they can place you on courses and you have no option but to go, if you refuse without good enough reason, they can stop your benefit with immediate effect.
Also, if you give up work voluntarily, there is no automatic entitlement to benefit, particularly if you willingly leave your job. Benefits is a safety net, not a lifestyle choice and if you willingly pack your job in, chances are that they would reject a claim to benefit as you will have put yourself in that situation.
